TARU is a small Montreal workshop that designs, conceives and builds wooden art toys. Each toy is unique and hand-made from different wood essences. I am especially attentive to the materials and fabrication of my toys, in order to offer refined and quality objects. The sensual aspect of my figurines is evoked by rounded angles and silky texture. Their aesthetic simplicity and kind faces charm children and adults alike.
" I was born in 1985 in Farmington, NM. My family moved to Detroit, MI when I was three. Growing up on the infamous 8 mile road had a profound impact on my interests and outlook. In high school the only thing that excited me were my drawings so upon graduation I decided to enroll at Ringling College of Art + Design in Sarasota, Florida which is a far journey from Michigan. I originally enrolled as a computer animation major. That lasted 3 years. I switched to illustration and got back to my drawing. I'm trying to make a difference. " – Francis Vallejo
' Waitrose Herbs have a lot to say for themselves. Each minimally packaged pot carries bold tabloid style text, telling you everything you may not already know about the contents. Guest herbs make an exclusive and seasonal appearance with a splash of red in the headline. Herbs are as rich in myth and magic as they are in flavour and nutrition. This was a great opportunity to spread the word and present some real shelf talkers.' Designed by Lewis Moberly.
The rest of Ricky Allman's work is wonderful as well but I think my favorite are the images I posted here. Have a look at his portfolio site when you get the chance. Truly great.

I've been using HP's Mini netbook and what I still find most difficult about it (and all netbooks I presume) is that the keyboard and screen are too small for me.
Many of you have a lot of data on your local computers or on a network drive that you use with your PC based databases such as Microsoft Access, File Maker Pro and Alpha Software.
Taking things a step further, wouldn't it be great to know more information about HOW customers are finding you on Google, what search tools they're using and more. Using Google Local you can already have your store hours, a menu and other information about your local store.
If you're a smaller business looking for an easy to use accounting/financial management solution for your business you definitely have a number of options.
When you think of using automation technology to improve processes and save money in business, your first thought might be physical automation - robots for manufacturing, scanners, sorters, etc.
Watching the power icon on your cell phone shrink down to nothing is no fun in the middle of a busy business day.
Pharos Science & Applications, Inc., better known for its GPS devices and navigation services, recently made a splash in the cell phone market with the introduction of a sleek Windows Mobile phone that offers a key advantage for business users.
Wireless cell phone headsets are handy devices when driving or when walking around an office or a conference room, but they're not much use if the person on the other end can't hear you.
They're not the most powerful portable computers, but today's new class of diminutive netbooks have more than enough muscle and nifty features to handle common business tasks without bulking up your briefcase.

Sen. McConnell gets fourth term as U.S. Senate minority leader
U.S. Senator Mitch McConnell was unanimously re-elected today to serve as the Republican Leader in the U.S. Senate for his fourth two-year term.
In a press release, McConnell thanked the senators from his party for re-electing him and said:
"We have an energized leadership team that is committed to finding solutions to the critical issues facing our country. I will also use my leadership post to work on behalf of all Kentuckians to ensure they have a strong voice in the Nation's Capital."
So with McConnell re-elected, it appears leadership in Washington will be exactly the same as Nancy Pelosi announced her intent to remain Democratic House leader today and Sen. Harry Reid, and Rep. John Boehner almost certain to return as leaders of their respective chambers.
And with that return of leadership, Politico wrote an article today about McConnell and Boehner with the headline "Good Cop, Bad Cop". The two are playing different roles to achieve the same overall goal, the article said.
Politico says that McConnell's job now after the re-election of President Barack Obama is to show the president and the party base that the Republicans are not willing to compromise on their principles.
Boehner, meanwhile, has sought to seek some middle ground with the president on fiscal issues, most notably taxes. Boehner has played "good cop" by saying he would be open to raising revenue by changing the tax code but not by raising taxes.

Play Batman: Rooftop Caper
Today's Free Flash Game is Batman: Rooftop Caper. It's an official game from Warner Bros and DC, originally created as a cross promotional tool for the cartoon series Batman: The Brave and the Bold.
Of course, this being an officially made game means that it's well-made, with graphics that look good enough to be mistaken for the show instead of the crude, rushed graphics people usually expect from free flash games. Frankly, the game looks very similar to the Nintendo DS and Wii game based on Batman: The Brave and the Bold.
Batman: Rooftop Caper is a simple beat-em up cum platformer. The objective is simple, you jump through platforms and ledges in order to make it to the rooftop, beating up thugs along the way. Your arsenal is made up of your standard punch, complemented by a batarang and a grappling hook. If you're not sure what to do, the Blue Beetle is around to give you a short tutorial and a lot of gameplay tips.

In our third installment of the series, Toronto sports fans, let's take a closer look at some of the stats from last season with regards to draft position and championships.
Some of you might be asking yourself, "What's the point of all of this talk about mock drafts?" or, "Why does it even matter?"
The answer is simple: You need to understand what your team will look like from any draft position, because you don't know where you're selecting from until the draft begins.
These statistics, courtesy of fantasysharks.com, show the rate of success that each draft slot had during the last fantasy football season.
In understanding these statistics, we know how much additional in-season work we need to put into our rosters to ensure success.
Look back at the mock drafts that we covered in the first two installments. (We'll get to some others in a moment)
We've shown you possible team outcomes for slots 1-2-9-and 10, and while each appears to be a solid team these statistics indicate that these are the on the opposite ends of the success spectrum. Having the last pick has meant the greatest chance of winning your league.
What I forecast as a championship worthy team from the No. 1 position faces an uphill battle based on these stats.
Here are more examples to look at, from each of the remaining draft slots:
Picks 3-8 10 team standard league
Which of these teams do you think stands the best odds of winning a championship?
While they are all similar in team make-up, statistically speaking slot 8 would give us our best chance at a title.
Doing mock drafts allows fantasy players the best form of preparation for the upcoming season. Being able to analyze your teams strengths and weaknesses ahead of time will keep you ahead of the game.
I hope that you have found these articles to be informative, and perhaps a little educational.

Colourful Fish Laptop/Notebook Case
Advantages: padded sleeve/case, made from neoprene material, durable, front pocket for accessories
Disadvantages: the bag doesn't have a solid base, so unable to stand upright
...I recently bought myself a new laptop and gave my old laptop to my Husband, along with the laptop bag. I searched for a new laptop bag in Comet and PC World, but didn't see any which caught my eye, so headed home and did a search on Amazon. I was swamped with choice and was drawn to the 'Ektor' Laptop/Notebook soft case sleeve.
My new laptop is 13.3 inches, so I purchased a 14 inch (260x360mm...

Review of Argos Dots Trolley Case and Flight Bag
A Light Lunch Laptop Bag For Ladies & Laddies!
Advantages: Compact, hard wearing exterior, rain proof, easy to carry, trolley-case strap, many pockets.
Disadvantages: Interior colour a matter of taste, fits up to 13.3" netbooks, requires gentleness, availability.
..., it is the fact that this bag is one of the best for carrying. Neat. light, hard wearing and small it seldom gets caught between people and the shoulder strap has a soft feel shoulder pad that is very comfortable on my shoulder and less sweat inducing.

Were you surprised by what Mark wanted to do in the studio?
Actually, Roy, I went in and did my parts. I was responsible for getting the Possum in there, and Tom T. Hall and Bobby Bare. I assume they were going fishing afterward. But I live 75 miles outside of Nashville, so I suppose I wouldn't have had time to be there for all of it. Eventually I'll get to meet everyone, I hope.
Sometimes when country stars invite in a lot of guests, the result can be a disaster. Were you worried about that?

I don't suppose Mark chose anybody that at least wasn't a Louvin Brothers fan. Nobody had to twist their arm. There were no twelve-page contracts, nothing about points on royalties.
With these songs, you pay some debts to your own influences: Jimmie Rodgers, Bill Monroe, the Carter Family and the Delmore Brothers.
Absolutely. We were huge fans of the Carters and the Delmore Brothers. I've said it before, but the Delmores were the hottest duet to ever perform on the Grand Ol' Opry. But they were lucky that they performed in the '30s, when there wasn't nothing but radio. Now there's so much media, and so competitive, more so than it was when my brother and I got into it.
You've been singing without your brother Ira for four decades now.
41 years to be exact.
On that beautiful song you wrote, "Ira," you say that you still hear him singing.
It's scary. Somewhere down the road, someone will invent something that you can hook to your head, and whatever you hear, it will be recorded on the tape you're singing on. I suppose the Japanese will invent that. They invented the harmony singer machine. A lot of people, you just mash a button, but whatever part you want, tenor, baritone or bass, that machine can do it. I know Ray Price uses one. It's a different world out there.
Three years ago, I went on a tour with Cake, Cheap Trick and the Detroit Cobras. Ain't nobody louder than Cheap Trick. Before the tour was half over, I was on the stage singing "I'm a California Man" with Cheap Trick! Roy Kasten

to enroll in DR programs, subject to environmental requirements and program criteria, and can earn extra income for these customers while adding to the utility's menu of options for coping with load growth.
Rapid DG Growth
Customer adoption of DG—both renewable and natural-gas-fired—has seen a dramatic increase in Con Edison's territory over the past five years, and this trend is expected to continue. Some of this is due to technological developments and customer interest in green energy, but most can be attributed to market and policy changes—particularly low, stable natural gas prices; state incentives, including property and other tax incentives; and the inherent efficiency of CHP. A meaningful number of customers have both the ability and desire to rely on DG for at least a part of their electric needs.
The forecast for Con Edison's summer 2012 peak demand is 13,225 MW. And there is currently 160 MW of grid-connected DG in Con Edison's service territory, 90 MW of which are natural-gas-fired CHP projects installed in the past three years alone. From 2012 through 2018 an additional 75 MW of large-scale customer-sited CHP is planned to be installed, based on discussions with interested customers. These anticipated projects, along with historic adoption rates and market trends, all feed the projection that CHP will comprise most of the 460 MW of new grid-connected DG by 2030.
Customer adoption of renewable energy in Con Edison has been virtually all rooftop solar PV, with a trend toward larger PV installations. Solar PV is expected to make up a small but increasing amount of DG—totaling at least 45 MW by 2015 and 125 MW by 2030, buoyed by state and federal incentives.
The high case projection, shown in red in Figure 1, reflects the possibility for increased adoption of CHP as a result of two potential accelerators. The first is that technology improvements and innovative financing could increase fuel-cell and microturbine adoption. And the second is that oil-to-CHP conversion might increase as local regulations require almost 8,000 customers to phase out using higher emitting #4 and #6 fuel oils for building heating.
Forecasting, Planning, and Operations
Prior to 2011, Con Edison's practice was to add-back customer-sited baseload distributed generation to a customer's system load, treating these resources as demand response and effectively eliminating the benefits that the customer's DG could provide to the system. Con Edison has modified this practice such that a large DG project, running a reliable and tested technology to serve customer base loads over peak periods, can now be reflected in the forecast, resulting in the recognition of reduced demand in constrained areas. Existing continuously operating large-scale CHP is now incorporated into 10- and 20-year load relief plans, contributing capacity that, along with other DSM measures, is deferring multiple traditional T&D load-relief capital projects, realizing savings for the company and its customers. (See sidebar "How Con Edison Includes DG in the Forecast.")
For example, 24 MW of summer peak-period baseload output of existing CHP capacity is defined as a load reduction in Con Edison's current area substation and sub-transmission plans—some of which—depending on

Today, I'll tell you about some of the best and most trusted companies throughout the travel industry, leaders in their segments, along with special discounts and deals for Vacations To Go customers.
Some of the cruise line offers include free shipboard credits, which are as good as cash on board and can be used to pay for almost anything not included in the upfront cost of the cruise, including alcoholic beverages, boutique items, spa treatments and shore excursions.

Norwegian Cruise Line emphasizes complete flexibility on board with its Freestyle Cruising concept. Guests can choose to eat when they want and with whom they want. The dress code is "resort casual," though optional formal nights are offered at least once on every cruise.

Celebrity Cruises sails worldwide, with a fleet ranging from the Celebrity Xpedition, which carries just 98 passengers on explorations of the Galapagos Islands, to Solstice-class ships that accommodate more than 2,800 guests and cruise popular regions like the Caribbean, Mediterranean and Alaska.
I'm happy to announce that Celebrity is offering Vacations To Go customers exclusive shipboard credits of up to $300 per cabin on all remaining 2014 cruises, based on availability.

The latest of the Solstice ships is the Celebrity Reflection, which features the Lawn Club, a top-deck expanse of real grass; the Lawn Club Grill, an interactive, outdoor dining experience; and the Art Studio, with hands-on instruction in painting, drawing and more.
The line has brought the most popular Solstice features -- like the AquaClass spa staterooms, which provide access to spa amenities -- to its four Millennium-class vessels: Celebrity Constellation, Celebrity Infinity, Celebrity Summit and Celebrity Millennium.

River cruise operator AmaWaterways received top honors in "Berlitz: River Cruising in Europe," a new guide released this summer. In a ranking of more than 280 riverboats, AmaWaterways secured the top 11 spots, with the AmaPrima taking the No. 1 position.
Next month, AmaWaterways will introduce its Irrawaddy River itineraries in Myanmar with the launch of the all-suite, 56-passenger AmaPura. Explore the region's culture through onboard presentations like a traditional Burmese puppet show, and enjoy Asian-inspired treatments in the spa.
The new 124-guest AmaDara will debut on the Mekong River in Vietnam and Cambodia in 2015. It will feature AmaWaterways' signature twin balconies (a French balcony plus a full-size balcony), a sundeck with pool and two restaurants serving Western and Southeast Asian cuisines.
The company is offering our customers savings of $1,000 to $2,000 per couple ($500 to $1,000 per person) off Mekong and Irrawaddy cruises when you book by October 31.
There's still room on AmaWaterways' Christmas markets cruises on the Rhine and Danube, and if you book by October 31, you can save up to 40%. These departures give passengers an opportunity to visit outdoor holiday markets that are set up in city squares or in front of cathedrals or town halls.

Paul Gauguin Cruises is best known for its luxury cruises of French Polynesia from Tahiti. Voyages take place aboard the 332-guest Paul Gauguin, which was specifically designed to sail the blue-green lagoons of the region. A second ship, the 88-passenger Tere Moana, cruises the Caribbean, Mediterranean and Central America.
Fares aboard both ships include complimentary beverages, including select wines and spirits, bottled water, soft drinks and hot beverages served throughout the vessel.
Paul Gauguin has just reduced rates for Vacations To Go customers. Save up to 75%, plus enjoy exclusive shipboard credits of up to $500 per cabin on a variety of departures.

Aboard the Tere Moana, complimentary snorkeling equipment is provided for use at destination beaches.
Both ships are home to the elegant L'Etoile restaurant for dinner and the indoor/outdoor La Veranda. Paul Gauguin also offers Le Grill, a casual spot for a buffet breakfast or poolside lunch.

Attempting to locate information on Christian Vorbeck and Leonard Seemann(?) who lived in the areas of Tonawanda and Grand Island near Buffalo New York in Erie County. They are in the 1860 census on Grand Island. I believe that Leonard Seemann's, who came from Holland,daughter Anna Elisabeth married Christian sometime around 1856.
Christian and Anna "Yetta" moved to Livingston County Missouri around 1867 and lived there the remainder of their lives. The couple had five children three of which reached adulthood. William F.F., Sophia Charlotta and Anna Catherine. Christian died in 1884 and Anna on May 12,1891. Both are buried in the Jones Cemetery in Livingston County Missouri.
Christian came to the U.S. in April or May of 1850 via Quebec Canada. He was born circa 1828 in Mecklenberg near the Denmark border. He came to the U.S. with a brother Carl Vorbeck. Help is much appreciated and will try to supply any information and help you would like.

Back with a beard
Jul 11, 2013
By Starla Pointer
Of the News-Register
"I'm part of a beard and mustache group in Portland," he said. "We all compete fairly often."
Most of the competitions are in the Portland area, where he lives. So he was excited when he heard about the new one at Turkey Rama, as he grew up in Newberg and started attending Turkey Rama long before he had facial hair.
Now 25, Morter has maintained a beard for years. It's currently about five inches long, he said.
"A beard is a way of life," he said. "If you're a real man, you can power through the summer with it."
While he admires free-flowing beards left to their own devices, Mortar brushes and oils his beard daily. He keeps it clean, too, using a mild shampoo with conditioner.
For people who are thinking of growing beards or entering the beard and mustache competition, Morter offered encouragement.
"Don't be scared," he said. "Just have fun with it. If you compete, it's just having fun with a group of like-minded people."

Riggs: Violent crime not 'through the roof'
Homicides up, other crimes even or down
INDIANAPOLIS - Indianapolis is on pace this year to set a dubious record for homicides. Despite that, police say crime on the whole hasn't increased.
Earlier this month, IMPD Officer Perry Renn was killed in a shootout with a suspect. During the same weekend, seven people were shot in Broad Ripple, and another two women were shot on the east side.
The list of violent acts in the city so far this year is long, and it adds up to the perception that violence has gotten out of control.
"When I hear people say that crime is through the roof, that's simply not the case," said Director of Public Safety Troy Riggs. "But, that doesn't negate some of the incidents we've seen or the amount of officers fired upon, losing two officers, some of the high profile cases."
According to IMPD's data, the number of violent crimes in the city dropped slightly from 2012 to 2013. Up this year are robberies, which have increased by 5 percent. Police say that increase has been driven by heroin use.
Shootings are up slightly from 2013, while aggravated assaults have remained even.
Homicides are the problematic stat: Indianapolis has had 78 so far – 9 more than this period last year.
"I believe in my heart and experience, having been here now almost four years, that the people of Indianapolis are better than that," said IMPD Chief Rick Hite.
Police are pushing legislators for mandatory minimum sentencing for using a gun during a violent crime. They say if those sentences had been in place, as many as 20 fewer homicides would have happened this year.
State Senator Jim Merritt (R-Indianapolis) says he plans to reintroduce a bill mandating those sentences to send "a strong message."
"If you even brandish a gun during the commission of a crime, you're going away for 20 years," Merritt said of his bill.
According to "Congressional Quarterly," Indianapolis ranks sixth out of 32 cities for the highest crime rate in cities with populations of a half-million or more.
Last year was the first time since 2008 the city had seen more than 100 homicides in a year.

Adderall XR - Awake for 23 Hours+ at a time Adderall XR does have a real impact on my ability to see the so-called forest from the trees (to see units vs the parts); however, Adderall XR (5 mg, capsule) tends to blur my vision in both eyes a little and does not appear to have a positive impact on productivity since one (1) Adderall XR (5 mg, capsule) tends to keep me awake for 23, 24, 25 hours at a time.
I also tried regular Adderall (5 mg tablet - not 5 mg XR, capsule) which did not keep me awake for quite as long as the Adderall RX, 5 mg capsule, above as I recall).

Water 'trouble coming' for Epping
Some residents found brown water, like this collected in a jar, coming from the tap in Epping last week. (JASON SCHREIBER/Union Leader Correspondent)
In a letter dated Aug. 30, the state Department of Environmental Services said it's concerned that the water being produced by the three wells at Hoar Pond "is or may be degrading over time under their current pattern of use."
Groundwater level monitoring data collected from Hoar Pond Well No. 3 and submitted to the state on Aug. 2 "indicated that the existing sources may not be capable of providing their projected production volumes and that the need for additional supply may be more critical," the letter said.
Water woes have plagued Epping for years and more concerns have been raised in recent years with the rapid expansion of businesses, including restaurants and other retailers, on Route 125.
But for the third time, voters last March defeated a $2.5 million plan to buy the property. The same proposal was rejected in 2010 and 2011.
Koch said commissioners plan to ask voters in March to consider the proposal once again.
McGeough said selectmen haven't taken a vote on whether to back the plan again, but he will support it and believes board members will as well.
Officials from the Department of Environmental Services plan to meet with water and sewer commissioners on Oct. 1.

And, no, I'm not reporting a rumor. I don't know any rumors, and I don't have sources anyway. So why am I saying such things? Here's my reasoning: Gagne – Richards – Brown sucked Saturday. They were by far the worst line on the ice. This point in and of itself means nothing. Sutter was…

Kings 2013 Season Preview: x = 12 – y – 41*(z-5)/48

x = 12 – y – (z-5)/2 That was my prediction for the Kings in 2011-12. Where x = conference seed, y = number of 20 goal scorers, z = number of shoot-out wins.

Arizona Cardinals
Drafting Michael Floyd in 2012 proving to be the right call for the Arizona Cardinals
It was nice to see the breakout game Michael Floyd had on Sunday against Jacksonville. He had six catches for 193 yards and a touchdown, good enough for the second 100-yard game of his career. And he is on pace to eclipse 1,000 yards this season.
There was some debate in the 2012 draft as to where Arizona would go with the 13th overall pick. They were desperate for offensive line help and Riley Reiff, David DeCastro, Kevin Zeitler, Cordy Glenn and Jonathan Martin were still in the board when Arizona's pick came up.
But needing to fill a void for a number-two receiver and possible future #1, they selected the Notre Dame standout despite a drunken driving citation that led to a suspension in college.
Arizona had struggled to find a complement to Larry Fitzgerald since Anquan Boldin was traded. Players like Steve Breaston, Early Doucet and Andre Roberts failed to give Arizona a dynamic duo at wideout.
There were some doubts about Floyd last season as to whether he could elevate his game to become a primary receiver. He had a decent season with 45 receptions for 562 yards and two touchdowns.
But this season, Floyd has emerged as a go-to receiver. He has led the Cardinals in receiving yards in four of the last seven games. He leads the team in receiving yards with 657, which is 103 more than Fitzgerald.
He is proving that Arizona made the right call in the 2012 draft and he way very well develop into a future #1.
